We wanted to visit Western North Carolina and spend money to support businesses several months…read moreafter Hurricane Helene devastated the area. We booked online and selected a room on the first floor off the porch/patio. We arrived later than expected on a Friday but they were still offering wine, beer and snacks. It's an older building, but we actually prefer that to big, sterile hotels. Sleep quality was good although since you are on the far side of Main Street, you might hear traffic at night. For breakfast we were given vouchers to a nearby eatery which was quite good. One evening we also enjoyed sipping hot tea on the porch. Location is great to stroll into the downtown area. After we left, I noticed I forgot my rain jacket in the closet, so we called them up and they tracked it down and mailed it to us, charging the card we had on file.

We decided to splurge a bit for this extraordinary inn. and we were generally pleased with our…read moredecision. We got in late on Thursday evening, and just squeaked in before the managers retired for the night. They had a lot of information we needed, so were very happy. The place was, as advertised, the very essence of Southern elegance. The giant front porch with rocking chairs gave us the message Only drawback was the room itself, with no closets and a shower that had hot or cold water, but nothing much in between. That said, the bed was comfortable, and the tv had the full suite of cable channels - something we used to take for granted, but in the AirBNB era we've seen a lot of LeftoversTV. The real magic here is each morning's breakfast - totally gourmet dining here each day - especially the quiche on Sunday. The couple running things were delightful, and great ambassadors for their booming town. Highly recommended.

Maybe my expectations for good hospitality are a bit high, but a reservation for this price left me…read morepretty disappointed. We booked the Silverbell Tree room directly through the Waverly, totaling $595 for two nights. The Waverly charged an additional $17.99 for a booking fee. Unbeknownst to us, there is evidently a "late check-in fee" of $42.70 for checking in after 8 pm. (Our first time EVER to be charged for a late check-in.). We couldn't find record or notification of this charge anywhere, however. Trying to keep a long review short; $655 total for two nights in a semi-clean room that didn't include refreshment of bath towels/cloths or any housekeeping after night one was a bit disappointing. The claw foot bath tub is ok, but feels less than clean. (Showering is kind of gross since the curtains don't leave much room to keep your own rear end off of them, let alone whoever's rear was rubbing on them before.). The bed was great. The breakfast was ok. The coffee was ok. Overall the experience was sub-par compared to other historical venues that have accommodated us. I hope you have better luck than we did or look elsewhere.

It was an easy as well as beautiful drive here from our home. Once we reached Downtown it was a block off the Main Street. Parking was free and located in the rear of the property. Luckily on the Friday evening we arrived we were able to get dinner at Harvey's which is onsite as well. The drinks and dinner was superb. Look for separate review on the Restaurant. After dinner we walked downtown to stretch our legs after being in the car as well as get an after dinner drink. Back at the Henderson as we got ready for bed hubby exclaimed how comfortable the bed was as well as everything about the Henderson. The next morning we went down to breakfast. Note it is included with your stay. We thought continental breakfast but this was a freshly prepared meal. Well I was still full from our dinner so I had some toast and tea. Hubby had the crepes and he loved them. After breakfast we enjoyed just taking in the place and sitting on the rocking chairs on the porch. Later we did leave and checked out the local sites Jump Off Rock with beautiful views and hiking trails. As well as miniature golf across from the high school. We did catch a nice nap before dinner as well as checked out the bees located on the roof on the second floor. Note you can buy the honey to take home with you. After another wonderful meal at Harvey's at the Henderson we were ready for bed. The next day a different menu for breakfast, we were sad to be going. It was a wonderful restful and peaceful stay. We hope to come back soon. Best weekend away and we felt right at home.

The inn immediately feels warm and inviting, with a cozy fireplace at the entrance and thoughtful nods to classic cinema with Alfred Hitchcock-inspired decor. Hollywood movies constantly played at the bar adding a nostalgic touch. The food we had was excellent and there is tea and refreshments on each floor. The inn is a Historic Building and be prepared that the rooms can be a bit chilly this time of year in the mountains, be sure to pack warm. We're so grateful for the kindness we experienced during such a difficult time and deeply appreciate all the generosity and care we received. Staying at the Henderson Inn was a memorable experience that we will always cherish. Thank you!

This year was different (and even better). The staff is there for you 100%. After hours, they have an on-call employee to help with whatever needs you have. During business hours, they ensure you're having the most comfortable and relaxed stay nestled deep in the Blue Ridge. You've got unique rooms, comfort at every turn, vintage looks & feels, a NEXT LEVEL breakfast buffet, and about one metric ton of rocking chairs, porches, fire pits, and everything else to stage your mountain vista viewing and mountain air consuming. We loved it so much we went ahead and booked next year's reunion on the spot. You're not gonna find a better place for comfort, kindness, and peace.
